i'm nearing my breaking point with Youtube TV, if they hike the price any more i'll just go with no TV. 2/3 of what i watch now are covered by HBO/Max, AppleTV, and the Hulu subscriptions we have, that are included with various other services we use. Only thing i keep Youtube TV for is live TV and NFL Sunday Ticket. seems crazy to pay $1000/year PLUS the Sunday Ticket price for Football. might just jailbreak a fire stick and steal streams like over half of my friends do. 


Honestly at some point being a stand up person and paying for things you want seems like the sucker move and increasingly paying for TV is becoming that for me.

Idk that I use YouTubeTV for anything other than sports, especially football. Once March madness is done I might cut it until September. 

I am leaning towards doing the same.

Ridiculous gouging. 

How much better is watching tv than it was 30 years ago? Better picture and can record, rewind, slo mo

I wish we just had a choice of a certain # of channels to choose from out of the 500+ channels.

Like…choose any 15 channels of your choice for $100…or any 40 channels for $200. Can change one time a month for a $5 fee or at any moment for $10.

Spectrum had something like this a few years ago I remember. We used it for a 9-12 month span. Can't remember the price, but it was definitely cheaper.

We have 3 kids that are all four and under right now (4, 3, 9 mos).

We did Disney this past July with them all. 

Currently, nothing is planned for 2025 except for a Vegas trip in the fall for my wife's 30th Bday and we're going/meeting a large group of funs.

Typically we have a summer trip/vacation. Usually it's planned around athletics as my wife is and Athletic Director and I am a basketball coach. 

On Dec 9, 2024:

Just bought myself a 75" QLED tv. We have a 65" currently. It appears it'll be significantly larger (that's what she said).

Set to arrive early next week. Just in time for CFB playoff and bowl games, and our immense binging of shows/movies over our 2 week Christmas break (one small benefit of working in education)

Not an OSU fan at all but trying to see/gauge what they lose this year to draft/graduation. Any help on this? I have the following:

OFFENSE

Skill: Egbuka, Judkins. Henderson, Scott, Howard

Linemen: Jackson, Fryer, McLaughlin, Simmons

DEFENSE

Skill: Styles, Simon, Burke, Ransom, Hancock, Igbinosun

Linemen: Sawyer, JT, Hamilton, Williams


Is that a pretty accurate list?

That’s a fun carry unless you have a level entry from the outside 


Definitely not

My treadmill holds up to 6 coats


Yeah not looking forward to my return on investment on this one. At the very least, it will be down in our basement.

Was sent this from a buddy:

OSU potential next 7 opponents over 9.5ish weeks

Indiana

Michigan

Oregon

Boise

BYU

Oregon/Bama

Texas/Georgia


I know Michigan is getting 23.5 points (which is insane - has to be one of the higher OSU/UM spreads) and Boise and BYU aren't exactly giant killers, but if OSU does advance to the title game and win it all - that is a pretty impressive gauntlet that they will survive.

Not only for Black Friday, but I find Slickdeals is a good website to find deals. It is forum based so you can get a good read on if the deal is legit.

Ended up ordering the Rogue Fm-6 twin stack.  I over researched and leaned about 7 different ways before buying this one  

Damn. Good for you

Yeah so anymore I only do compound lifts. I was going to do the same with him, just with really light weight. 

You should have him do CrossFit.......its really scientific stuff!

Back in 2020 I bought home gym equipment.  It was powertec brand and was pretty good. When we moved last year the people who bought our house wanted to buy the home gym equipment, and like an idiot, I agreed.  So I’ve been going to a gym for the last year.  I hate it.  I hate how crowded it it.  I hate the inconvenience.  I hate waiting to use equipment.  I’m ready to buy home gym equipment again.  


Do I go with Powertec again or do I go with something else?  I know Rogue has really nice stuff.  Costco uses Inspire equipment that includes delivery and install.  Have been looking at that.  I mostly just do compound exercises anymore so I’m really only looking for a rack, bench, and plates.

I have had success w/ Rogue. I currently have their Monster Lite Squat Stand. Gets the job done. Wish I had a pull up bar but don't have the ceiling height in my basement.

Get an Ohio bar and some bumper plates and you're good to go.
